It's not the first time a fun collectible has gone into space, several years ago Astronaut Steve Robinson took his Tom Corbitt Space Cadet lunch box filled with his astronaut tools.

Now it's Buzz's turn to have his dream come true! Disney Parks and NASA will send the 12-inch-tall action figure "to infinity and beyond!" Liftoff is scheduled for 5:02 p.m. May 31, 2008 from Kennedy Space Center.
